Scarlet’s POV

I let out a shaky sigh the moment the door clicked shut.

The racing thump of my heart slowed just as a gust of air brushed across my face, lifting a few loose strands of hair. It was over. For now.

I dropped into the chair nearby, trying to catch my breath.

Just a second, that’s all I needed. A single moment of quiet.

But I didn’t even get that.

The door creaked open again, and there he was. Callan.

“Not again,” I muttered under my breath.

At this point, I wasn't sure if this pack would kill me first or if I'd get the chance to take my revenge.

And honestly? This was all Damien’s fault.

I just needed to survive this place for eight more days. That’s it.

Then I could choose to stay, or leave and never look back.

But staying would only be on one condition: I had to be accepted. Truly accepted by the pack.

Callan’s voice broke the silence. “You’re really picking Damien over me? You think he deserves you?”

I scoffed. “No one deserves me, Lucian. And I’m not a trophy or some

    Scarlet’s POV By the time the arrow pierced my chest, blood gushed from my mouth and I collapsed backward.But Damien was fast. He caught me just in time.I had seen who fired the arrow. I was sure it was a woman… but her face—I couldn’t place it.Was Kayla trying to kill me?Who exactly wants me dead?Tears streamed down my face as Damien lifted me onto the horse, panic carved into every line of his expression.“Hey, Scarlet… I’m sorry. Stay with me.” His voice trembled as he yanked the arrowhead from my body and urged the horse forward.My vision blurred. Blood soaked my gown and fingers.I didn’t know why he brought me to the forest, but everything about this place felt unfamiliar… and dangerous.The last word that slipped past my lips before darkness swallowed me was—“Kayla…”***********By the time I opened my eyes, the first thing I heard were voices.

  • Rejected By The Alpha King, Claimed By The Lycan King   Chapter 43: Secret Crush

    Damien’s POV I had only done that to scare her. I never expected her to jump at me. Still, I smiled faintly, stepping aside to gently help her with the door. She looked completely lost, unguarded, and vulnerable. That look she wore whenever I used teasing words on her. I’ve never felt this tethered to someone before. Especially not like this… not with Scarlet. She’s too—too beautiful. Too perfect. And yes, she’s meant to be sacrificed. But hell no. I won’t let that happen. All I want is to make her stay. The curse still burns in my veins, but we’ll find a way around that. We have to. Right now, all I can focus on is healing the wounded soul standing in front of me, and claiming her as mine. “Aren’t you coming anymore?” I snapped my fingers gently in front of her face. She flinched, startled. “I… yes,” she replied, lips trembling. Goodness goddess… her lips. They are so tempting. I couldn’t stop staring at them, but I knew better than to act on the hunger

    Scarlet’s POVQuickly, he stood me up and set the plate back on the table. Clearing his throat, he gestured awkwardly.“Eat the rest,” he said. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it.”He slid his chair back into place, his composure clearly shaken.“I only wanted to help since you weren’t—”“It’s fine,” I cut in, watching the chaos flicker in his eyes. I could smell his fear from miles away.He was trembling, but why? I hadn’t asked him to come close. Yet the moment I mentioned something poking me, he panicked. His heart was racing so fast I could hear it.Was he that terrified of touching me?Could Emma have been right—was there something more to him? Or was Callan right after all? That Damien, no matter how soft he seemed now, was still a beast underneath?“Why are you staring?” he asked, voice tight, gaze darting away.Was he... shying away from me?This couldn’t be real. Just a moment ago, he was all confident. Now this?I remembered when I first entered the palace. He couldn’t stand the s

What’s wrong with me? I’ve never been this close to a man. Never felt this exposed…this fragile. I placed my hand on his chest, trying to create space between us. But he caught my wrists, keeping them pressed against the firmness of his chest. My palms felt the rhythmic thud of his heartbeat—strong, steady, hypnotic. His deep ocean-blue eyes locked with mine as he tilted my face up to meet his. “Can you hear it?” he whispered. Even if I hadn’t heard him, I could read the words on his soft, pink lips. They moved with such gentleness that my heart trembled. goddess apart from the fact that this man is a beast… he’s dangerous in every possible way. Everything about him lures me in.
